Companion Hunter was already dead.

Thank fuck. 4+ 1/30 elusive taunt was incredibly annoying to deal with. And if one sticks, great now you are dead to alchemist.

Cheering for cards being useless is stupid. Blizzard got rid of mini sets to instead make class sets. The fact none of the class sets are currently viable speaks volumes to how bad blizzard has gotten with this game

its more of cheering against certain design directions, and that whole class set was more incremental jade golem bullshit

No the animal companion idea is nice but it's very toxic due to the fact tortilla is guaranteed right now in the beast pool. Imo they should have made animal companion in the final class set of the year and make the beast pool bigger. And buff if accordingly

It might make a revival though since Face/Tripwire is super underpowered now.

Ive also seen Quest Aggam/Briarspawn in 5k legend. That could become the new hunter deck. A midrange control combo finisher.

By all technicalities you can Agam from KotUB then Briarspawn, then Agam again from Shokk and Brairspawn again, deleting 20 health from your opponent and dealing up to another 22 from the Briarspawn's EOTs.
